Suicide begins below a house sticking out of the cliff on river left. The river first turns right and takes a drop (take the drop center right; then move to center) then twists left (move to right) down into the backwater pool before Ellicott City. There are many lines here, and a decent surfing wave at the bottom of this at some levels. Much beyond 3' [~828 cfs], and the eddies all wash out, making one wild III+ run all the way from the river split (marked by a giant rock plastered with strainers in the center) to the bottom. At those levels, there are some sneaky holes with stopping potential through here, so keep a sharp eye out at the top of every big wave.
From Danny Miller:
Suicide proper at around 1150cfs (116.5' on Old EC gauge) contains a turbulent and retentive hole on the far left. I had a chance to experience it first-hand this morning after attempting to boof from far left and nearly got caught there. Most people probably already avoid the left line anyway due to supposed strainers. Yet in reality, the strainers aren't always there at this level; however, the hole (and the eddy trap mentioned below) is there and everyone should take caution. How it forms: The hole forms from the the left and the middle currents converging just left of center, producing a retentive hole just to the left of that convergence. To make things at the bottom of this pour over even more interesting, there is a tiny eddy behind a large rock on river left that at lower levels provides just enough space to eddy out. At this level, if you drop in over the far river left side of the convergence, your boat may get pushed into this small space, allowing the boat to get stuck and the stern to be dragged back into the pour over, which looks very retentive. Hope this adds needed beta on the left line. Center is okay, but I would not recommend going too far left unless you scout it out with others and know what you're doing. Much above this level and it washes out.
